How to Use PaintNuts Car Touch-Up Paint

PaintNuts touch-up paint is designed to be straightforward to use, even if you've never done it before. Most repairs, chips, scratches and scuffs, can be completed at home in under an hour.

What you can repair

Stone chips
Scratches and fine scuffs
Light scrapes and grazes
General road wear

Step-by-step application

Clean the area thoroughly. Remove any dirt, wax or debris before you start.
For deeper chips or scratches showing bare metal, apply primer first and treat any rust before painting.
Apply the paint in thin coats using the pen tip or brush. Let each coat dry for around 25 minutes before applying the next.
Once the final colour coat is dry (leave at least 24 hours), apply a lacquer coat for gloss and protection.
Polish the area to blend the repair into the surrounding paintwork. The PaintNuts Scratch and Scuff Remover works well here. Skip this step for matte finishes.

Full step-by-step instructions are included with every kit. For more detail, visit our how-to guides or check the FAQ page if you have a specific question.

FAQ: PaintNuts vs bodyshop - which is better value?

For minor car paint damage, chips, scratches and scuffs, PaintNuts is considerably better value. A bodyshop typically charges £60 to £210 for a small scratch repair and up to £1,200 or more for a full panel respray. PaintNuts touch-up pens start from £13.99. A complete aerosol kit with primer, paint, and lacquer is £40 to £50.

The bodyshop will always produce the most flawless result, but for everyday cosmetic repairs it's rarely worth the cost. PaintNuts gives you a custom-matched colour, professionally formulated paint, and results that genuinely blend in, for a fraction of the price.

Hyundai Paint Code Location

Finding your Hyundai code is easy and straight-forward. Hyundai paint codes are found in the vehicle. Specifically, Hyundai paint codes (or finding the Hyundai paint code from VIN) are usually found in the driver's-side door jamb.

However, on some Hyundai models, Hyundai paint codes may be in a different location to others. If this is the case, other areas where your Hyundai paint code may be located are:

Inside the boot lid
Under the bonnet
Inside the wheel arch
In the door hinge
Inside the fuel cap

Hyundai Paint Code by Registration

Try looking in your Hyundai owner’s manual, or contact a Hyundai dealership and ask them what your Hyundai paint code is. An alternative way is to look up your Hyundai paint code by registration.

Ceramic White
Performance Blue
Star Dust

How to use Hyundai touch-up paint? (FAQ)

Hyundai touch-up paint is simple and easy to use regardless of whether you use it as a touch-up paint pen, bottle and brush, or car spray paint. Follow the guidance below for the correct use of each.

How to apply Hyundai touch up paint?

Our Hyundai touch-up paint is easy to apply with our paint pen, and can be used to repair a scratch or scuff in six easy steps:

First check your Hyundai’s paintwork is clean and dry. You may want to give it a wipe with a Microfibre cloth to remove dust that could spoil the touch-up.
Shake your PaintNuts touch-up pen for 60 seconds to thoroughly mix the paint.
Carefully squeeze the paint pen over the repair area and apply the first paint layer.
Wait 10-25 minutes for the paint to dry, and apply the next coat, if needed. Depending on the damage, you may need several paint coats.
Allow the paint to dry for 24 hours following the final paint coat.
Optional - add a polishing compound like PaintNuts Scratch & Scuff Remover or lacquer to the repaired area to finish.

How to use Hyundai touch-up bottle & brush?

PaintNuts Hyundai touch-up bottle and brush is ideal for touching up paint chips, scuffs and scratches. And with 50ml of touch-up paint, there’s enough for several applications. Here’s how to use our touch-up bottle on your Hyundai:

Feel the damaged area with your hand and check that it’s free of rough patches. Then smooth it with sandpaper if necessary. At this stage, you can also apply primer if metal or rust shows in the scratch.
Shake your touch-up bottle for 2-3 minutes to ensure the paint is thoroughly mixed.
Check that the paint matches your bodywork colour by brushing a small amount onto a surface other than your car.
If you’re happy with the colour match, apply the first touch-up paint layer to the damaged area. You may need to add more than one paint coat. If this is the case, wait 10-25 minutes between coats for drying.
After the final paint layer, leave it to cure for 1 hour.
To finish, polish with PaintNuts Scratch and Scuff Remover or similar, or add lacquer, if needed.

How to use Hyundai touch-up aerosol?

PaintNuts Hyundai touch-up aerosol comes in a 500ml can, so there’s plenty to touch up minor scratches, scuffs and chips for some time without buying another one. When using PaintNuts colour-matched aerosol, simply follow the below steps to touch up your car paintwork:

Check the damaged area with your hand for roughness and smooth it with wet and dry sandpaper if needed. If you see metalwork or rust in the scratch, use PaintNuts primer aerosol first, waiting 24 hours after application before using touch-up paint.
Shake the aerosol for at least 2 minutes until the touch-up paint is thoroughly mixed.
Make sure the surface is clean and dry before applying the aerosol in smooth crosscoats, keeping a distance of 250 mm from the scratch or scuff.
If more than one coat is needed, leave 15 minutes to dry between coats.
After the final coat, spray the aerosol upside down to clean the nozzle and wait 24 hours for the repair to harden.
Optional - Blend the repair with the surrounding bodywork using a polishing compound like PaintNuts Scratch & Scuff Remover.
